[that's more than what aerith can say for some people, but she nods anyway.]

After hearing about the ritual I'd hope so. But if we're here for too long...[some people might go insane.]

[situationship]

[ He's going to staple them to life because dying would be an inconvenience to all of them.

Waits for her to continue her thought. ]

[residentflorist]

[well. yes that's one way to do it.]

People could start to get really desperate to do anything to escape.

[situationship]

... I hope cannibalism doesn't become involved.

[ This is a joke. ]

[residentflorist]

[it's a joke, but also.]

Let's not give anyone any sudden ideas, okay?

[situationship]

Lips sealed!

[ Hands up and "FUTURE" shows up again. ]

Who'd be the first person to take a bite out of another. Go.

[ Funny morbid scenarios are okay? ]

[residentflorist]

[she wants to ask about the future instead of thinking about eating their new friends, but it's fine!]

Karma. [immediately just pinpointing the feral child.]

[situationship]

[ She can ask whenever she finds the opportunity. ]

He'd use people as leech feed.

[residentflorist]

[she will but now she's scared about leeches?]

Is that better or worse, actually?

[situationship]

This is just like a half-full or half-empty question.

[ IT IS NOT ]

[residentflorist]

Aren't those questions usually reserved for situations where one outcome is actually better than the other? These are both kind of bad!

[situationship]

Well, in one of them you're technically alive.

[ So! ]

[residentflorist]

At least until the leeches bleed you dry...does that really count in this case?

[situationship]

It'd take a while and that means time to possibly escape.

[ Yeah! ]

[residentflorist]

If those are my only two choices, then I guess leeches it is. [a beat.] That isn't permission to actually bring leeches anywhere near me.

[situationship]

I'm anti-leeches.

[ to be clear ]

[residentflorist]

As opposed to Karma being pro-leeches? [she does sort of sigh tiredly.] Maybe we should find a better way to get people to stop bringing the leeches out of the swamp and leave them where they belong.

[situationship]

I wonder if we can ask the goats to eradicate them. They can live in the swamp, but keep our stream clean!

[ The word "future" floats elsewhere on him. ]

[residentflorist]

[i'm GETTING THERE HEI.]

If they're able to do other small favors for us, it's worth a try. [her eyes do, in fact, settle on the word again.]

...Gojo, are you aware your tattoo is moving?

[assigns it as traveling tattoo.]

[situationship]

[ I AM NOT PRESSURING STOP YOU DON'T NEED TO i just know i can probably forget after sleeping ]

I requested something already, so it may need to wait until next week. [ looks at word, i guess? ] Oh... Becoming an adult is so scary...

[residentflorist]

[that is fair, but i want to know.]

I kinda wanna know what, but maybe that's a surprise for later. [because. being an adult is a time. she's silent for a moment as she decides how to phrase this.] Are you worried about growing up? Or what will happen to the future as a whole?

[situationship]

It's not really special, just something to charge my cellphone.

[ HIS ENRICHMENT OF SCROLLING THROUGH HIS PHOTOS LIKE A SOCIAL MEDIA ADDICT

How long can he pretending to be a baby ]

Growing up is eh, it'll happen. Changing a society will be hard and will take time. It's stuff like that.

[ Daunting. ]

[residentflorist]

Oh. It might not be special but it could be helpful for later. [his ENRICHMENT and she's out here thinking COMMUNICATION.

anyway. she seems to be assessing him with that.]

Is it up to you to change a whole society? [curious. she doesn't say that it doesn't have to be just him or question what that means, she's asking what this is to him.]

[situationship]

If they decide to give us cellular data, maybe.

[ and then him and todomatsu can text each other secrets. ]

No! But! I want to. I wish it was up to me.

[residentflorist]

I'd say you could ask but that definitely sounds beyond their capabilities at this point. [but my god it would sure be easier to keep track of everyone with phones. instead, she's more focused on what gojo's talking about.]

A want is still pretty powerful, I think. Who's it up to in that case? [do you also have an evil corporation looming over your head.]
